Philips Semiconductors B.V.
Introduc tion: With the new Philips silicon bipolar double poly BFG400W series, it is possible to design driver-amplifiers for high frequency applications with a low current and a low supply voltage. These amplifiers are well suited for the new generation low voltage high frequency wireless applications. In this note an example of such an amplifier will be given. This driver-amplifier is designed for a working frequency of 900MHz.

De s igning the circuit: Th e circuit is designed to show the following performance (target): tran sisto r: BFG425W V SUP=3 V , ISUP~1 0 mA fre q =90 0 MHz P o we r Gain: >12dB V S WRi<1 :2 V S WRo <1 :2 Th e in- and outputmatching is realised with a RC-combination. Also extra emitter-inductance on both emitterle ad s (µ-strips) are used to improve the matching. This emitter inductance is not necessary. The place of the via-h ole s is not critical. De s igning the layout: A lay-out has been designed with HP-MDS. Appendix III contains the printlayout. M e a s ure me nts : Me asu re me n ts of the total circuit (epoxy PCB) are done (Appendix II).
